If you've been following my blog, you know that it's been about 3 weeks now since I started eating vegetarian (on weekdays) until 6 PM. Well, today I faltered. I woke up to the glorious scent of bacon! Tim had made some and when he saw that I was awake he asked if I ... See Full Entry »

Go to the gym frequently. See rest of entry below. Eat healthier/eat out less/cook/buy groceries. See rest of entry below. Put aside money each paycheck into a savings account.

Though I've had a few lazy ... See Full Entry »

Last week, I went to the gym every day after work.  I want to make that a regular part of my life, however it's only week two and I may be faltering already.

I'm not as sore as I was last ... See Full Entry »

Day 4 - 2009 Resolutions Me so sore. Soooooooo sore. Today was abs day. So my abs aren't sore yet. But my arms, chest, back, and my legs—oh god—my legs are on fire. It's difficult to reach around and take my shirts off. The mere sight of stairs make me cringe. When I sit down, ... See Full Entry »

Day 3 - 2009 Resolutions I'm actually gonna go to bed before midnight tonight.  Actually, I'm in bed right now, typing on my netbook. Me tired. The gym is a great way to spend and gain energy. I was really hyped up earlier after my workout, but now, I'm quite ready for bed. Speaking of my workout, the ... See Full Entry »

Day 2 - 2009 Resolutions Gotta get to bed so I'll try to keep this short. Went to the gym after work. It wasn't as crowded as yesterday when it was filled with people who were all gung-ho about their own resolutions to lose weight and/or get in shape. It was still busier than usual though.  I'm ...

It's the end of Day 1. I established my New Year resolutions earlier today. So what have I been able to do? I went to the gym after work. I took it easy and did 3 sets of 8 on 5 different chest and shoulder machines. The 25-minute walk from the gym to the subway station ... See Full Entry »
